Cardano said in a post published on Oct. 20 that its next upgrade, Dijkstra, will introduce a new consensus technology called Leios. The project said the goal is to raise the network’s transaction processing capacity by 10x to 15x over time rather than all at once. According to the announcement, Leios will be rolled out cautiously and is expected to expand gradually only after at least two parameter updates. Cardano also made clear that deployment in the Dijkstra upgrade will mark the starting point of Leios development, not a full launch from day one. The update was cited by Techub, with CoinPost referenced in the source note.

The project said Leios is designed to increase the network’s transaction processing capacity by 10x to 15x in stages. It will not be switched on in full at the start of the upgrade.

According to the announcement, Leios will be introduced cautiously and is expected to expand gradually only after at least two parameter updates. Cardano said its deployment in the Dijkstra upgrade will be the starting point of the technology’s development rather than a full rollout at the outset.
